June 28

I have decided that I am terrible at updating. This blog is turning into quite a failure, but in my defense internet is sketchy and we actually staying pretty busy around here trying to entertain ourselves. Last night we had a "Thanksgiving" dinner complete with a 23 pound turkey. It was quite delicious. Everyone brought a dish and there was lots of food and lots of eating. I made the stuffing and it actually came out quite good. Everyone who had some thought is was delicious and a few people even took home some leftovers. I made enough to feed a small army but luckily it all got eaten or taken home so it was just enough. Living in the compound has been very entertaining and helps get through the time up here, everyone gets along pretty well and there hasn't been any drama which is amazing and such a relief. Some of the girls are starting a Twilight marathon tonight in order to get ready for the new release of the next film. I will not be partaking because as you all know I refuse at this point in my life to commit to a new series. I just don't have the energy to get involved with more characters and form a relationship with them. I'll stick to Friends for now and knitting and sewing...

Work has been going pretty well so far this season. We had our first "slam" of people today at the lighthouse, we were just doing constant tower tours for about an hour and a half between 1:30 and 3:00. It helped the day go faster though and made the afternoon a little more exciting. People were pretty understanding of the wait which made it easier too, I think they understood that there is only one tower and it only holds so many people at once so if you want to climb you are going to have to wait. The weather here is finally starting to clear up too, we have had some rain for about a week and a half off and on but today is supposed to be the end of it and it is supposed to be nice for the rest of the week. I hope it is because heaven knows I am sick of rain and wet. I do have pictures that I have been taking since I have been up here but I have been having trouble trying to upload them to my blog. I think I will eventually have to have a few posts that are just pictures from my time up here. Maybe I will even break down and post some on facebook, who knows.

But for now I have to get going. Hopefully I will be able to start posting a little more frequently now that Thanksgiving is over and I don't have as many visitors coming like I have had, though of course, visitors are always encouraged!
